As we start this new week, Mother Nature has decided to remind us that Summer is here in full swing.  

We had almost 2 weeks with a chance of rain, clouds and cooler temperatures.  While we did not get much rain, areas around us did.  

Before the middle of August, Texas children will all be back in school and out of the heatwave coming our way.  

So as our temperatures go back into the 100's, we give thanks to Mother Nature taking a vacation this year.  

While our kids will all be back in air conditioned rooms, let us not forget the firefighters from Canada, Oregon, California and all over fighting big fires, trying to save homes, churches, and business, animals and land.  

Dance to the music this week!  Hugs

Good Night!  See you in the morning!  

Good Night!  Sweet Dreams!  

Last Friday of July and only a few more days left this month.  Are you ready?  

Even though I am working, I thought I would check on you today!  

Are you leaving the house and going for a ride or picking up stuff for the weekend?  

You should invite a friend to go along with you.  It makes the trip so much more fun!  

After all, you can start the weekend this evening by going dancing with someone you enjoy having fun with!  

Let the games begin and enjoy your weekend!  Hugs

Happy Friday 😊

A flower for you to share with someone you love.  

Don't you just love Chocolate Chip Dough?  

Guys are supposed to wait and Girls are supposed to be fashionably late!  

I can't imagine trying to find the perfect match in today's dating world.  

No matter what your life looks like, eating, waiting, dating or whatever else, remember you are here for a reason... right where you are now.  

Laugh every day!  Share your smile!  Enjoy every minute of life!  

I hope you love flowers as much as I do!  They always put a smile on my face.  

I have never seen a yellow Passion Vine flower.  I do have the common Purple one!  

I also have lots of Coneflowers or Echinacea.  They seem to come up everywhere.  

My first instinct is to run or shoo it away!  I have never considered myself a flower!  

As you look for beautiful flowers today, remember who created and planted them all.  

Always focus on what is most important in life and don't forget to count your Blessings!  

Happy Wednesday!  Hugs

I am so happy that Trey is finally getting therapy and that you can help him so much.  Prayers are being answered in God's timing!  Take good care of yourself Cheryl.  Blessings & Hugs!  Pam

Good Tuesday Morning!  As the sun comes up, it casts a shadow on Mount Rainier across the sky.

Remember that each day is a new day with all kinds of new possibilities!  

What beautiful things will cross your path today?  Be sure to keep your eyes working overtime!  

You just never know what will jump up right in front of you!  

Be alert and feel things that are happening around you even before you see them.  

Monday!  New Week!  Just hang in there!  

Before you know it, Friday afternoon will be here!

Just hang on and the sun will soon be shining on you!  

You are beautiful and others want to be near you.  

The tide will turn and you can always count the blessings of the past and look forward to more!  

Put your feet up and enjoy the view this week!  Hugs

I survived WORK today!  Glad you are home safe & sound!

Stay focused and have a wonderful weekend!  Hugs

Friday is here, the week is nearing the end.  Look for beauty all around you.  I am working and we are getting granddogs for another week.  

Hibiscus  

Iris  

Hoya blooming  

Orchid

Have a wonderful Friday!  

What are you doing this summer?  Have you been up to no good?  

I see you got busted for chasing a squirrel.  Now who is going to help you?  

Please help me!  I won't ever do it again!  

I don't think I know who you are!  Have I ever seen you before?  

Be kind and help others as you never know what they are going through!  

Joy in your heart and the sound of laughter is a good way to start Wednesday!  

Wonder if it is rated softer in the rain or winter?  We know what it is rated during the summer.  

Best scent for the whole house is bacon frying in a pan!  

Thank goodness we don't get sick very often!  I am not sure if I have either one of those remedies.  

I hope that is enough Laughter to fill you with JOY for the rest of the week.  

Happy Wednesday!  Hugs

Every day moves slowly before two cups of coffee for each of us have been consumed in our house.  

If you have had your coffee, I know you are ready to sing along.  

If you are like me and can't carry a tune, then do you play an instrument?  I don't play or understand music at all.  But I love to listen to it!  

I believe in the power of music because I have danced a zillion miles to it.  

Music and Laughter are good for the Soul!  Enjoy your Tuesday to the fullest.  

Here we are halfway through July!  I know Beryl is still causing so much trouble for so many people from East Texas to the Northeast.  

I love all my flowers but this heat is really doing a number on them.  We easily have another 6-10  weeks of a hot summer.  

I know we will have rain and some temperatures below 100° very soon!  

Then I will be mowing, watching hummingbirds and taking pictures of my flowers once again!  

When it cools, in November, hopefully in October feel free to come on over.  Until then I am sending you Blessings & Hugs!  

Enjoy the small pleasures in life this week!  Hugs
